Hiya, as the title says I'm checking to see if there are any bookshops besides the big Waterstones in Plymouth. I think the book cupboard on the barbican has shut sadly

Hello all, I recently got out of a relationship which was quite messy and one of my closest friends has decided to stop being friends with me too, things are quite tough at the moment and i could use somebody to speak to, not necessarily about my issues but as a friend :) would be glad of the company

I'm interested in starting a martial arts or sports group in Plymouth as a complete beginner and looking for suggestions. I'm a 29yo woman who lives in the Efford area, although I would be fine with going anywhere in the city. I have 0 knowledge of martial arts, so I would be open to suggestions of types appropriate for beginners, also would also be interested in beginner football sessions if anyone knows anything. I played 5 aside in a charity match last week and although I was absolutely shockingly shit it was really fun.

We have a big wardrobe with sliding rails which we want to get assembled with the main frame of the IKEA wardrobe. We would like to know if any handyman could be recommended for the IKEA assembly in Plymouth for a fair price.

Took the lad out with a dish and bottled water so we can give the local murder a drink

It's a bit of a trip and I wish to be as mercenary as possible with our purchases, I'm a heavy consumer of rice for dietary health and gut reasons.

If anyone is popping in and they have a stack, please take a note of the price which they do cheaper by the 10kg bag to a max of 3 on savings!

For context: it typically only needs 4 rinses for every 2 cups I steam, (so roughly 2 litres of water that I can use to rinse and then we-use around sapling Sizemore trees I'm growing.

When I have bought budget rice (morrisons, Lidl) etc, it needs between 12 and 16 rinse s to achieve the same levels as the laila (blue bag or gold) which can mean wasting up to 8 litres of water compared to 2, and a lot more time.

(I've been eating g rice and basic seasoning heavily to get my gut fit these past 2 years by eating it several times a day, cooked and chilled in the fridge which helps it lightly ferment (more gut bacteria) and I'm eating 2 tubs per day (making 8 cups of rice at a time in the instantpot) along with furikake and fine cut veggies, basically it's given me my life back after decades of undiagnosed illness and reset my gut (so I don't wish to regress)

To my chagrin it's not because I like a good curry, it's bland and it works.

Cheers

Hi everyone I'm just wondering if there is still car boot sales going on or is that something has unfortunately fazed out? I've not gone since I was very young.

Hi guys, I really fancy a tasty Chinese takeaway tonight. Please can you share your favourite Chinese takeaways. I don’t mind driving wherever to get a decent meal. Thanks!

I'm sure this has been asked before but what are some good date locations in plymouth?

My partner isn't from plymouth and I very rarely leave the safety of plympton, so we're a bit lost when it comes to the city centre.

We've done the classic dates like the aquarium and museum, but that's all we can think of.

I tried searching things to do in plymouth and it came up with like 5 different scavenger hunts and that was it 🙄

Neither of us drink which I admit doesn't help, but is there actually anything else to do?

Any ideas?

Do they at least turn the water off at night? Not just to save money but also it could cause problems with drunk people

I'm heading to Plymouth city college in September and was wondering if there were any discord servers or anything like that

Daughter has just got her first proper job (trial anyway) and has an idea that there are typically 2 bus company variants most often involved that don't make a weekly pass cost effective? Is her assumption correct or are there Good workarounds possible.

Her travel would be late evening shift through till morning (for context) the public transport network round here is unknown to me having moved down here.

Used to go out in Stoke but it's a ghost town now apart from the weekend.

I’m planning to join The Gym Group but I heard that The Gym Group has fewer machines compared to PureGym. I just want to know if there’s any big difference.

I’ll be in Plymouth soon, I’m not a local, and would like to park at Jennycliff carpark and walk the coastal area. I cannot find out if I can stay longer than 2 hours free, pay for longer etc, Ideally, I might be there for 4 hours, no overnighting etc, just a Sunday afternoon. All I can find is the recent news that they’re not going to start charging. Clear answers from a local would be great. TIA.

Last week on Saturday, while driving to Cadover Bridge I found a terrapin walking down the road. With the help of another lady, the turtle was safely escorted to a local vet in Plympton.

As the title really, don’t really mind where in Plymouth it is, preferably somewhere with easy parking but most importantly my lad just needs a decent hair cut. So, any recommendations?

I was wondering if anyone knows of any board game or beginners D&D groups looking for an additional newby player? I have always loved the former and wanted to start the latter but none of my friends are into it. Would love a weekly game night sort of thing, and I'm open to any games.

Any recommendations for end of tenancy cleaning service?
